I'm so bad. I've been going out of my way to ask questions in my A&P classes that I know there aren't any concrete answers for, just so I can watch our instructor (who rolls his eyes at us every time we don't know something) fumble for ten minutes until he finally admits that he's not quite sure of the answer.

Last night's question (asked with the innocent voice of a child inquiring about how Santa can make it all around the world in the same night):

"So if all reflexes are homeostatic, then what homeostatic purpose does the reflex of laughter serve?"

After ten minutes, he admitted he might have to go home and look that one up.

Woot woot.
